Arsene Wenger and his Premier League title chasers look made to measure for success this season.

Arsenal boss Wenger and his squad have gone back to the future by introducing new club suits which will be worn for every Premier and Champions League game at the Emirates .

It is a return to tradition as the club has moved away from tracksuits to smart fashion thanks to a tie-up with Paris's oldest fashion house, Lanvin Homme.

Vinai Venkatesham, Arsenal’s Sales and Marketing Director, said: "We are delighted to welcome Lanvin to the Club as our Official Tailor.

"The fashion house has a remarkable history and proud heritage, and is an institution in its field having opened in 1889, only three years after Arsenal played its first match. The suits are a classic design, and will give players and staff a unified and stylish appearance.”

The suits are likely to go down well with fans as they represent a return to the club's smart traditions.

They also follow the likes of Manchester United who wear club suits on official club trips.
